New paths for modelling freshwater nature futures by Kramer, Lilith, Teurlincx, Sven, Rashleigh, Brenda, Janssen, Annette B. G., Janse, Jan H., Brauman, Kate A., Földesi, Csaba, van Wijk, Dianneke, de Senerpont Domis, Lisette N., Patil, Sopan D., Rashidi, Parinaz, Hamel, Perrine, Rising, James, Mooij, Wolf M., Kuiper, Jan J.

“…First, we outline how the NFF and its main value perspectives can be translated to freshwater systems and explore what desirable freshwater futures would look like from each of the above perspectives. Second, we review scenario strategies and current models to examine how freshwater modelling can be linked to the NFF in terms of its aims and outcomes. …”

Dynamics of current-driven magnetic domain walls and skyrmions by Indra Purnama

“…From the physics point of view, our work on the multiple nanowire system has also shed a light on the spring-like nature of the Domain Wall- Domain Wall (DW-DW) interaction, which can potentially be used as a framework to investigate the mass property, i.e. the inertia, of DWs in ferromagnetic systems. …”

Multiple signatures of a disease in potential biomarker space : getting the signatures consensus and identification of novel biomarkers by Ow, Ghim Siong, Kuznetsov, Vladimir Andreevich

“…For each tGSS, the EFD of gID co-occurrences/overlaps with other rGSSs is characterized by scale and context-dependent Pareto-like frequency distribution function. Our results indicate that while independently there is little overlap between our tGSS with individual rGSSs, comparison of the EFD with BFD suggests that beyond a confidence threshold, tested gIDs become more common in rGSSs than expected. …”

新加坡华语电视剧华人形象研究 = A study of ethnic Chinese images in Singapore Chinese television drama by Xiang, Zhili

“…Based on collecting, viewing and categorizing the representative TV series of MediaCorp Channel 8, this thesis analyzes the six dimensions in the construction of images of ethnic Chinese: Chinese nationals (Overseas Chinese), Singapore citizens, English education, language dialects, new immigrants from China, and other races in Singapore like Malays and Indian. In terms of the images of Overseas Chinese and Singapore citizens, Singapore Chinese TV dramas have demonstrated the transformation of the identities; before the Second World War, the emphasis was on the establishment of the Overseas Chinese identity; after the independence of Singapore, the attention was on promoting and instilling the identity of Singapore citizens. …”
